Show Moss Pushes For Westwaier Canyon Bill Sen. Frank E. Moss (D-Utah) (D-Utah) announced late last week that a bill affecting a primitive stretch of the Colorado Colo-rado River in Grand County had been reported out favorably favor-ably by the Senate Interior Committee. The measure calls tor a study to be made of making a 13'2 mile section of the Colorado River which runs from the Utah-Colorado border bor-der in Grand County as a component of the National Wild Rivers System. The stretch of river is known as Wcstwater Canyon. Moss indicated that he intended in-tended to push for immediate Senate action on the bill in the hope that by doing so the measure will be signed into law and under way sometime next year. "The difficulty I expect is getting the measure meas-ure through the House. Some House members have already left Washington to begin campaigning," Moss stated. |
